daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay ( not sure what he says here , refer to the song )

you take my hand , i’ll take your hand ,
together we may get away .
this much madness is too much sorrow ,
it’s impossible to make it today .

she could drag me over the rainbow
and send me away .
down by the river ,
i shot my baby .
down by the river .

Em7 A Em7 A

be on my side , i’ll be on your side ,
there is no reason for you to hide .
it’s so hard for me stayin’ here all alone ,
when you could be takin’ me for a ride .

this might not be perfect , but i think it’s pretty close as far as the chords go . listen
the song and compare , slight alteration may or may not be needed . hope people enjoy ,
thanks neil .
